Chapter 142 The man
The background of being able to open a gambling house in a downtown city is imagined, not to mention that there is a loan note in his hand, with Su Gui's name written on it in black and white.
Su Yi looked at the content on the loan note and retorted coldly: "It's impossible, it must be that you forced him to write it. How could my brother be so irrelevant and borrow so much money from you?"
The gambling master with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks narrowed his eyes and looked at Su Yi with a frivolous tone: "Miss Su family can eat randomly, but they can't speak randomly. Our gambling shop is based on credit for business and never makes things difficult for others. If Su Xiaoniang doesn't believe it, you can go to your brother's friends to inquire and ask if this loan note was written by your brother himself."
Both Su Dan and Su Yi knew that such things could not be fake. Since the other party took out the loan note, the loan note must be true.
If you want to blame, Su Gui is ungrateful. He is so ignorant of the importance and borrows so much money.
Now, even if you lose everything, you may not be able to pay it off at once.
Su Jian, who was worried about his son, didn't care about threatening the other party anymore, and sighed: "This guy, Su was so angry that he didn't say anything. I hope he won't take it to heart."
"It's easy to say!" The master saw Su Jian bowing his head, and his face showed a smug look, as if his life had reached its peak. From the fifth-rank official, he was humble to his master in a gambling house. There were so many people watching him. After the news came out, I don't know how many people envy him.
Seeing that his father was humiliated, Su Yi was so angry that she stopped him: "Father, why should you be humble to him? You are just a master in a gambling house..."
"Shut up!" Su Jian glared at his daughter, turned his head and said to the master, "I wonder if I can let me see the dog and ask the matter clearly?"
The master shook his head and looked embarrassed: "Mr. Su, you are not in accordance with the rules. For us, you can see someone. As long as you pay back the money, you can take it away whenever you want, but if you don't have money, you can only feel embarrassed.
Oh, by the way, I would like to remind the adults that if we cannot repay the money within three days, we will send a finger to the mansion before we go to the house every day. After ten days, we will be hands and feet. If there is no money for half a month, the adults will prepare to collect the body of the mansion."
Thinking of his younger brother being cut off his fingers with one knife, Su Yi's heart suddenly raised: "How can you do this? Isn't it just that you owe you money? We won't be able to pay any debts."
The master was not upset and smiled: "Xiaoniang Su, our gambling shop also wants to make money. If you are like you, you will repay it sooner or later after borrowing money. I am afraid you will not be able to pay it off as your pants."
"Okay!" Su Ya was much clearer about this kind of thing than Su Yi. She raised her hand to stop her and said in a deep voice: "Since that's the case, this kind of brother will let me take money to redeem people in two days. In two days, I will take money to redeem people."
After saying that, Su Jian was about to leave with Su Yi.
Speaking of this, there is no room for negotiation. If you insist on making a big deal, your career may be affected.
The Su family’s foundation in the Tang Dynasty was still too shallow. Not to mention those wealthy families, even those rising stars were no match for the nobles.
"etc!"
But just as Su Jian was about to leave and go back to raise money, the master raised his hand and stopped him.
"Sir Su, please wait. I have something to remind you. The bastard who went to deliver a letter to your mansion a few days ago remembered the time wrong, so today is the last day of three days. If the adults don't pay back the money before tonight, the son may have to write with his left hand tomorrow."
Su Dan paused and finally took his daughter into the carriage.
Now that things have come, if he still can't guess that someone is causing trouble behind the scenes, the officials who have been doing so many years will be in vain.
On the contrary, Su Yi was pushed onto the carriage by Lao Su and kept looking back until he could no longer see the Jixiang Gambling House. He asked anxiously: "Dad, where are we going to raise so much money!"
Su Jian shook his head: "If it's just money, it's easy to deal with. Do you believe it or not? Even if we take the money, we will still not see your brother."
"Why?"
"I don't know, my father thinks that this matter is strange everywhere. It is said that your brother is definitely not such an ignorant person. Even if he bets with others, he will not owe so much money. Not to mention that my father is still a fifth-rank official. Even if he doesn't have much power, a mere gambling house would not force debts for a thousand guan."
Su Ya calmly analyzed the situation, but couldn't find who was behind the scenes.
I have been in the officialdom for a long time and have seen many intrigues, but at least I have done things in the circle. I have never seen this kind of out-of-town call for Lao Su, let alone encountered it.
In silence, the carriage stopped in front of the Su Mansion. Old Su, who came to his senses, looked at his daughter: "Xiao Yi, go back first, go to your Uncle Du's house for your father, and ask him to help the staff."
Su Yi's heart was in his throat since she left the gambling house. Seeing the old man say this, she said anxiously: "Dad, what should I do with my brother? Today is the last day. If I don't send the money, I'm afraid..."
Su Jian was also worried about his son, but he did not show it in front of his daughter. He just said coldly: "It's useless to be afraid, just treat it as a lesson for the rebellious son. See if he dares to continue to hang out with those friends in the future. Okay, you get out of the car first and leave for your father."
Su Yi got off the carriage in a daze. Seeing Lao Su leaving quickly, she felt a heavy heart and indescribable regret.
If I had known this, I would have given my brother the money. Wouldn't it be 100 cents? Even if I don't have that much money, I would have asked someone to borrow some and pay it back first, which would be better than the current situation.
Lianxiang, a maid who had been waiting at home, ran out of the yard and pulled Su Yi, who was in a daze, and asked, "Miss, what's going on? Did Mr. Gui bring it back?"
Su Yi shook her head while blaming herself. Somehow she thought of a silly and scolding figure in her mind, Li Gaoming.
Yes, Li Gaoming.
He mingled with Changsun Chong and others, dared to confront the five surnames and seven sons of the six surnames, and beat the Chen family's legitimate grandson who was safe and sound.
He... must have a very background, right?
But will he help his family?
And where are you going to find him?
Su Yi himself didn't know why she thought of Li Gaoming when she was desperate. Maybe it was because of the night of the winter solstice, and maybe it was some inexplicable reasons.
In short, after thinking of him, Su Yi calmed down, turned around and looked at home, pulled Lianxiang and walked out.
Lianxiang was shocked: "Miss, where are you going, Miss!"
